Renowned singer Big Eye Starboss is reportedly in police custody following his arrest during the just-concluded Kawempe North by-elections.
Yesterday 13th March 2025, Kawempe North by-elections were held to replace the late Muhammad Ssegirinya in Parliament.
The elections were marked by too much tension, as several journalists were injured, devices destroyed and some confiscated.
Additionally, NUP’s Big Eye didn’t survive the arrest, as he was detained and spent a night at Kawempe Police Station.
Giving an update about the development, NUP Secretary-General David Lewis Rubongoya stressed Big Eye Starboss and others were arrested due to their attempt to protect the votes from alleged malpractice.
